Twenty Four Reasons Why My Child Needs the Toilet

Although we’ve been out of nappies for quite some time now and our children are more than capable of taking themselves off to the toilet when they need to, toilet habits still seem to feature fairly highly on our topics of conversation!

Bum wiping and poo seem to be Dave’s pet hate whereas mine is the kids needing to go for wee at the most awkward of times. With that in mind I’ve written a list of 23 reasons why my child needs to go to the toilet . . .

Oh gosh, this made me laugh and grimace at the same time. I am about to start potty training the toddler, he is 3 in October and I have been putting it off thanks to upcoming travel and the fact that we have just moved house… I have to do it…

Reading your post just put a smile on my face as both my kids as the same and they are 7 and 5 years old respectively..so I am constantly reminding them about washing their hands after using the toilet and they both love to go to the toilet at the same time!

Love this! Can relate to every single one of them. I’ve been known to say ‘If there is any possibility that you might need the toilet in the next half an hour, can you please go now!’ when we’re on the motorway or a long walk etc etc and there’s a toilet right in front of them. Five minutes later, we will have passed the toilet and they will need to go. And, yes, my kids are teenagers, so it doesn’t improve all that much!

Let’s Go!

I started blogging as a mainly personal record of life with Ben, Chloe & Amy - a place to note down the things they have done to make us smile, their achievements and our adventures as my little people "take on the world".
